Let There Be

Spirit of the living God 
fell fresh on the formless
deep. Waters lapping,
waves of light clapping
at the sound of him speaking.

Word and breath were
intimately intertwined. 
Breath brought the word.
Word carried the breath.

When there was nothing,
Wind and energy 
filled God’s “Let there be”.
His creative designs, 
made flawless. 
His mighty and gentle presence
floating over the empty. 
Creation, made complete.

We may know the story,
but we don’t always remember
the same vitality that 
took nothing and made everything 
now flows in our own system
pulsating within, like rushing wind
moving in and through us.

Ruach Elohim – Spirit of the living God 
falls fresh on his sons and daughters.
Waters of praise lapping
Hands of surrender clapping. 

He awakens our minds, helps us see 
our sinful ways, dark days
and separates in our sleeping souls
night from day. 

Spirit gives us creative insight
and confirms our moves against 
God’s speech –
Our breath delivers His word
His word sustains our breath and word
intimately intertwined.

By this we live and move as children of light
who possess this unchanging intimacy with Spirit, we cry
Abba, my true Father, remind us of this union – 

Because dark days have hit us hard, 
Our own gears are misaligned - 
flow is slow, light, dim. 

Bones fight through
areas of disjunction. 
grinding tight with stress and tension. 
Abba  –
Let there be
light,
let there be freedom and flow.
Let there be,
release.

With, Spirit
gears align, hearts coincide.
The natural rotation of our own cognition
mesh with holy agency to transmit supernatural motion. 

This is freedom.
To move the way we’re designed to,
fused to what holds true. 

Look at where we stand now.
At a long
deep line in the sand marking
a moment in history that was planned 
when God delivered the first beat.  

The formless deep was just the beginning.
He ony starts what he will complete. 

Spirit, permeate us as God’s new creation. 
Nothingness becomes everything
through your word and breath
vibrating our own trust
to an eruption of praise –

God, let there be radical surrender to your ways.

Worshippers laid out on the floor
only to rise under the influence of eternal energy.  

Holy wind –
breathe on us 
quicken us to the veracity of God's word.
Empower us to level up.
Settle us in your presence like air settles on leaves.  

peace  - with us
joy - delight over us
love - indestructible and safe
patience - we value more what's on the other side.
kindness - humility fueled by wholeness.
goodness - in him we lack nothing
faithfulness – never giving up
self-control - radical self-awareness and
trust in God’s justice.
Awareness that we are different.

Let’s build places
and bring the lost home. 
Let’s unveil the mysteries of God
through our speech and dream-filled sleep.

Lyrics we write will draw nations to pray.
Truth we speak will capture the elite
and bring them to their knees.

Healing is our new normal,
he's cleansing childhood wounds.
To your own spirit –
say come out of hiding,
with God's authority you have work to do.

Preach the word in the
empty corners that need heaven,
led by Spirit,
who takes dust to make stars.

Daughters and Sons,
stand in full power.
Abide,
let him break what he needs to

Inhale –  his Spirit.
exhale – his Truth

Alive with God’s heartbeat. 
Breathe, then
make your move.
